Displacement Dynamics
• ‘Generalised violence and armed conflict (no direct personal threat/attack)’ (41%) was reported by key informants as the main reason for displacement in identified IDP locations.
• In identified returnee locations, lack of access to sustainable income (46%) and lack of access to basic services (28%) in the place of displacement were reported by key informants as the main push factors for return. On the other hand, improved security (30%), lower housing/rent costs (25%) and intent to re-join family members (17%) were reported as the top pull factors for return.
• With respect to long term intentions (beyond the next 3 months), 81% of key informants reported that IDPs intend to return to their place of origin.
Food
• Within identified IDP locations, key informants stated that the top three problems associated with access to food among IDPs and host communities were: price was too expensive (44% for IDPs, 45% for host community), distance i.e. too far or difficult to access by road (22% for IDPs, 23% for host community), and quantity i.e. insufficient or inconsistent supply in the markets (17% for both IDPs and host community).
• By comparison, among identified returnee locations, key informants specified that the top three problems associated with access to food among returnees and host communities were: price was too expensive (54% for returnees and host community), quantity i.e. insufficient or inconsistent supply in the markets (15% for returnees and host community), and quality i.e. not fresh or poor quality (11% for returnees, 12% for host community).
KEY FINDINGS
Nutrition
• In identified IDP locations, 78% of key informants confirmed the presence of children in the community who were becoming sick/thin, or had swelling in their feet due to lack of sufficient food to eat; while 79% confirmed the presence of mothers in the community who were becoming sick because they did not have enough food to eat.
• By comparison, in identified returnee locations, 69% of key informants confirmed the presence of children in the community who were becoming sick/thin, or had swelling in their feet due to insufficient food to eat; while 69% confirmed the presence of mothers in the community who were becoming sick due to insufficient food.
Health
• Malnutrition, diarrheal diseases and malaria were reported in identified IDP locations as the most commonly suffered illnesses among IDPs. In the same locations, the top three types of health facilities that currently exist were reported as: no health facilities exist (30%), health unit (27%) and private clinic (16%).
• Diarrheal diseases, malnutrition and acute respiratory infections were reported as the most commonly suffered illnesses among returnees. In the same returnee locations, the top three types of health facilities that currently exist were reported as: no health facilities exist (22%), private clinic (22%) and hospital (16%).
Shelter
• The top three shelter problems faced by IDPs in identified locations included: overcrowding (31%), inability to afford rent (17%) and materials to build or undertake repairs to homes were too expensive (14%).

were: temporary shelter solutions such as family tents
(23%), shelter materials (22%) and rental subsidies (16%).
• The top three shelter problems faced by returnees in
identified locations included: homes were damaged
but still habitable (26%), materials to build or undertake

bedding (both at 11%); whereas among IDP women the
top three NFI priority needs were: kitchen sets (22%),
blankets (14%) and clothes (13%).
• IDPs face the following problems with accessing
household items/NFIs in these locations: price i.e.
they cannot afford household items (46%), distance i.e.
distribution sites/shops are too far and difficult to access
by road (20%).
• Turning to identified returnee locations, key informants
stated that the top three NFI priority needs among
returnee men were: blankets (20%), fuel (15%) and
bedding equipment/mattresses (both at 11%); whereas

were: kitchen sets (24%), blankets (13%) and jerry cans
(11%).
• Returnees also face problems with accessing household
items/NFIs in these locations, including: price i.e. they cannot afford household items (54%), poor quality items (17%), and quality i.e. distance i.e. distribution sites/shops are too far and difficult to access by road (10%).
WASH
• Among identified IDP locations, key informants indicated that just 47% of IDPs and 50% of the host community had access to at least 15 litres/day of potable water. Meanwhile, key informants stated that only 67% of IDPs and 71% of the host community had access to sanitation facilities (toilets and showers).
• In the identified returnee locations, key informants specified that just 55% of returnees and 54% of non-displaced community members had access to at least 15 litres/day of potable water.

Livelihoods
• In identified IDP locations, key informants also revealed that the top three crisis-related factors affecting IDP and host community livelihoods were: security situation / safety (28% for IDPs, 31% for host community); increase in prices of productive resources (26% for IDPs, 24% for host community); and destruction of essential infrastructure i.e. irrigation, roads, utilities (11% for IDPs, 10% for host communities).
• The same pattern was observed in identified returnee locations where key informants stated that the top three

Protection
• Among IDP locations surveyed, key informants reported the presence of significant numbers of IDP and host community members with specific vulnerabilities.
• In surveyed returnee locations, key informants also reported the presence of returnees and non-displaced community members with specific vulnerabilities, albeit in smaller numbers.
Child Protection
• The top three harmful practices reported by key informants in IDP locations were: child labour (35%); child marriage (9%); and female genital mutilation (4%).
• The top three harmful practices reported by key informants in returnee locations were: child labour (51%); child marriage (5%); and female genital mutilation (3%).

TASK FORCE FOR POPULATION MOVEMENT
From August to September 2016, in coordination with OCHA and the Inter-Cluster Coordination Mechanism (ICCM), the Taskforce on Population Movement (TFPM) implemented a multi-cluster location assessment to gather more in-depth data on the IDP, returnee and host populations. The multi-cluster location assessment supplements the regular Area Assessments conducted by the TFPM – published roughly every two months – which gather and publish indicative data on displacement/return figures across Yemen, areas of origin, duration of displacement, shelter types and top priority needs.
The multi-cluster location assessment was jointly conducted by IOM and UNHCR in 3,292 locations hosting IDPs and/or returnees, covering all 22 governorates in Yemen. Key informants in each location were interviewed. In addition, the multi-cluster location assessment was used to collect data about the host community in areas of displacement, and the non-displaced community in return areas, to provide further insight about their needs. The selection of locations to assess was devised from the baseline of IDP and returnee populated locations published in the 10th TFPM report. The coverage encompassed the top 20% most populated locations with IDPs and returnees in each governorate. The sampling plan was based on The Pareto Principle – 80% of the effects (needs) come from 20% of the causes (locations).
In consultation with Clusters and OCHA, two assessment tools were developed, one for IDPs with host community aspects, and the other for returnees with non-displaced community aspects. The multi-cluster location assessment data was collected through physical visits to identified locations by existing TFPM field teams, where the key informants representing the community were interviewed. If a location was not accessible for any reason then it was noted and excluded from the sample. The next most populous location was then added to the sample.The information captured through the regular Area Assessments, in addition to this multi-cluster location assessment, was already shared with Clusters in September
METHODOLOGY2016 and provided datasets for the Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) for 2017, supporting both the cluster-specific needs analyses and needs severity scoring at the district level, as well as the determination of Population in Need (PIN), which translated into a strengthened evidence-base for the Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan (YHRP) 2017. Overall, through this data collection and analysis, UN agencies, I/NGOs, donors, and other stakeholders gained access to a greater breadth and depth of information that was utilized to inform needs and gap analysis, humanitarian response planning and targeted interventions in Yemen.
As a key informant based approach the information collected for analysis in this report provides indicative data on IDP, host community, returnee and non-displaced community needs in the locations surveyed. The multi-cluster location assessment is not a household level survey or infrastructure/service assessment, although it strives to provide baselines to inform where further data collection and analysis is required. Further assessments are required for valid and reliable data to be used for statistical analysis.

COVERAGE The top 20% most populated locations with IDPs and returnees – which were derived from the 10th TFPM area assessment report1 – corresponds with 1,049,286 IDPs over 2,978 locations and 682,422 returnees across 314 locations in all 22 governorates. All in all, 250 out of 333 districts in Yemen with IDPs and/or returnees were covered in the location assessment. The districts that were not covered did not fall within the selected sample, which was derived from the 10th TFPM area assessment.
Hajjah, Sana'a, Amran, Al Hudaydah and Dhamar governorates had the highest number of locations assessed. While Abyan, Hadramaut, Aden, Al Maharah and Socotra had the lowest number of locations assessed.

DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE
For every location that was assessed, 20 IDP/returnee households were randomly selected to generate demographic profile. The total number of household members was recorded as well as the age range and sex that each household member belonged to. Data on the age distribution was grouped into five age categories (0, 1-5, 6-17, 18-59, 60+) under each gender.

DISPLACEMENT DYNAMICS
REASONS FOR DISPLACEMENT
IDP Locations – ‘Generalised violence and armed conflict (no direct personal threat/attack)’ (41%) was reported by key informants as the main reason for displacement in identified IDP locations. In other IDP locations, lack of access to basic services (13%), lack of access to sustainable income (9%), family members attacked/killed in generalised violence (7%), evacuated/displaced/relocated by authorities for their own protection (3%), evicted by others (2%) and natural disas-ters (2%) were reported as the main reason for displacement.
Table 1: CSO and location assessment national SADD averages
As illustrated in Table 1 above, the percentage of boys and girls in IDP/returnee populations is higher than that of the general population while the reverse is true for the men and women population in displaced/returnee situations.

SEX AND AGE DISAGGREGATED DATA (SADD)
Sex ratios indicate the ratios between females and males i.e. the number of females for every 100 males. The sex ratio of the Yemeni population - according to the Central Statistics Office (CSO) – is 0.94, or 94 women per 100 men. The location assessment shows a ratio of 1.06 for IDPs and returnees combined, indicating the number of women slightly edges that of men nationwide.

Returnee Locations - In identified returnee locations, lack of access to sustainable income (46%) and lack of ac-cess to basic services (28%) in the place of displacement were reported by key informants as the main push factors for return. On the other hand, improved security in place of origin (30%), lower housing/rent costs in area of origin (25%) and intent to re-join family members in place of origin (17%) were reported as the top pull factors for return. Multiple displacement
Among identified IDP locations, 13% of key informants stated that the majority of IDPs had experienced multiple displacements since March 2015 prior to their arrival at the current location; whereas among identified returnee locations, 23% stated that the majority of returnees had experienced multiple displacements since March 2015 prior to their return to the current location.
MULTIPLE DISPLACEMENT
Among identified IDP locations, 13% of key informants stated that the majority of IDPs had experienced multiple displacements since March 2015 prior to their arrival at the current location; whereas among identified returnee locations, 23% stated that the majority of returnees had experienced multiple displacements since March 2015 prior to their return to the current location.
INTENTIONS
IDP Locations - With respect to short term intentions (within the next 3 months) in identified IDP locations, 40% of key informants stated that the majority of IDPs intend to return to their place of origin, 32% stated that IDPs intend to voluntarily locally integrate in the current location, and 26% stated that they intend to integrate in the current location in-voluntarily as they have no other choices. On the other hand, regarding long term intentions (beyond the next 3 months), 81% of key informants reported that IDPs intend to return to their place of origin, while just 6% stated that IDPs intend to voluntarily locally integrate in the current location, and 9% stated that IDPs intend to integrate in the current location involuntarily as they have no other choices.

PRIORITY NEEDSKey informants ranked food as the most reported priority need by all population groups (IDPs, host community, returnees and non-displaced community). Meanwhile shelter/housing and financial support were ranked as the second and third most reported priority needs among IDPs; whereas among the host community in the same locations food and health/medical support/assistance were ranked as the second and third most reported priority needs. By way of contrast, access to income and financial support were ranked as the second and third most reported priority needs among returnees and non-displaced individuals residing in the same locations.
FOOD
IDP Locations - Within identified IDP locations, key informants stated that the top three problems associated with access to food among IDPs and host communities were: price was too expensive (44% for IDPs, 45% for host communi-ties), distance i.e. too far or difficult to access by road (22% for IDPs, 23% for host communities), and quantity i.e. insuffi-cient or inconsistent supply in the markets (17% for IDPs and host communities).

NUTRITION
IDP Locations - In identified IDP locations, 78% of key informants confirmed the presence of children in the commu-nity who were becoming sick/thin, or had swelling at their feet due to lack of sufficient food to eat; while 79% confirmed the presence of mothers in the community who were becoming sick because they did not have enough food to eat.
In the same IDP locations, 88% of key informants reported that there had been problems in ‘feeding children under 5 and pregnant/lactating women since their arrival in the locations’; while just 7% confirmed that infant milk products (e.g. infant formula/milk) and/or baby bottles/teats had been distributed in the community. At the same time, 35% of key informants in IDP locations reported that no infants were formula-fed/-dependent, while 28% stated that less than 10% were formula-fed/-dependent, and a further 21% indicated that 10 - 25% of infants were formula fed/dependent.
Lastly, key informants in IDP locations specified that the top three most urgent nutrition-related needs in the community were: prevention of malnutrition in the form of providing micronutrient supplement for children (31%); treatment of children for acute malnutrition i.e. children who are thin, sick and/or having swollen feet (21%); and supporting non-breastfeeding infants and children with infant formula (13%).

HEALTH
IDP Locations - By frequency of response across the three rankings reported, malnutrition, diarrheal diseases and malaria were reported in identified IDP locations as the most commonly suffered illnesses among IDPs. In the same lo-cations, as reported by key informants, the top three types of health facilities that currently exist were: no health facilities exist (30%), health unit (27%) and private clinic (16%). With these same health facilities, key informants indicated that the top three health services available were: reproductive health (26%), emergency (20%) and laboratory services (15%).
Finally, when asked about the main problems associated with health facilities and access to them, the top three responses from key informants in IDP locations were: distance i.e. too far, difficult to access by road (21%), community cannot access because of security situation (18%) and quality i.e. bad service, unqualified/unfriendly staff (17%).

WASH
IDP Locations - Among identified IDP locations, key informants indicated that just 47% of IDPs and 50% of the host community had access to at least 15 litres/day of potable water.
With respect to distance to the nearest potable water point, 66% of IDP households and 65% of host community households lived more than 500 metres away, while 32% of IDP households and 34% of host community households lived less than 500 metres away.
The top three problems with potable water reported among IDPs and host communities in identified IDP locations were: water is too expensive (31% for IDPs and host communities), collection points are too far or difficult to access (27% for IDPs, 26% for host communities), and available water is not safe for drinking or cooking i.e. bad colour or taste (16% for IDPs, 17% for host communities).
Meanwhile, key informants stated that only 67% of IDPs and 71% of the host community had access to sanitation facilities (toilets and showers). The top four problems with access to sanitation/hygiene faced by IDPs and host communities in identified IDP locations were reported as: quantity of toilets i.e. less than 1 per 20 individuals (20% for IDPs, 19% for host communities), lack of waste management / disposal (17% for IDPs, 19% for host communities), quantity of showers (15% for IDPs, 14% for host communities), and lack of facilities for women (15% for IDPs, 14% for host communities).

Returnee Locations - Similar patterns were observed in the identified returnee locations, where key informants specified that just 55% of returnees and 54% of non-displaced community members had access to at least 15 litres/day of potable water. With respect to distance to the nearest potable water point, 52% of returnee households and 53% of non-displaced households lived more than 500 metres away, while 46% of returnee households and 44% of non-dis-placed households lived less than 500 metres away.
The top three problems with potable water among returnee and non-displaced communities were reported by key informants as: water is too expensive (42% for returnees, 43% for non-displaced communities), collection points are too far or difficult to access (19% for returnees and non-displaced communities), and available water is not safe for drinking or cooking i.e. bad colour or taste (13% for returnees and non-displaced communities).
With respect to access to sanitation facilities (toilets and showers), key informants in identified returnee locations indicated that 82% of returnees and 84% of the non-displaced community members enjoyed access to sanitation facilities. The top three problems with access to sanitation/hygiene faced by returnees and non-displaced community members were reported as: lack of waste management / disposal (33% for returnees, 36% for non-displaced community members), quantity of toilets i.e. less than 1 per 20 individuals (14% for returnees, 13% for non-displaced community members), and lack of facilities for women (13% for returnees, 11% for non-displaced community members). Although among non-displaced community members, lack of facilities for women tied with quality of toilets and showers (11%) as the most reported sanitation/hygiene challenge.

Among IDP locations, 77% of key informants reported that the IDP men enjoyed physical access to the market; while 80% confirmed that host community men have physical access to the market. Among those IDP and host community men who did not enjoy physical access to the market, key informants indicated that the top three reasons for their lack of access were: distance i.e. too far (38% for IDPs, 37% for host communities); lack of transport (32% for IDPs, 31% for host communities); and fear of fighting (13% for IDPs, 14% for host communities).
Moreover, 57% of key informants confirmed that IDP men can purchase food at the market; and 66% affirmed that host community men can do the same. Among those IDP men who could not purchase food at the market, the top three reasons provided by key informants for their inability to do so were: prices increased (59%); community does not have the means to purchase anymore (12%); and other reasons (9%). In comparison, among those host community men who could not purchase food at the market, the top three reasons provided by key informants for their inability to do so were: prices increased (59%); quality of food is not good (13%); and community does not have the means to purchase anymore (12%).

CHILD PROTECTION
IDP Locations - Among IDP locations surveyed, key informants reported the presence of significant numbers of IDP and host community children with specific vulnerabilities, including: 147,774 orphaned children; 11,055 children with mental health disabilities; and 10,538 children with physical disabilities. The top three harmful practices reported by key informants in IDP locations were: child labour (35%); child marriage (9%); and female genital mutilation (4%); although a highest proportion of key informants indicated that no harmful practices were present (40%).

Returnee Locations - In surveyed returnee locations, key informants also reported the presence of returnee and host community children with specific vulnerabilities, albeit in smaller numbers, including: 25,128 orphaned children; 2,157 children with mental health disabilities; and 2,953 children with physical disabilities. The top three harmful practices re-ported by key informants in returnee locations were: child labour (51%); child marriage (5%); and female genital mutilation (3%); although a significant proportion of key informants indicated that no harmful practices were present (36%).
In identified IDP locations, the presence of 543 designated safe/recreational places for children was confirmed; compared to just 69 safe/recreational spaces for children in returnee locations. On the other hand, very small percentages of key informants in both IDP and returnee locations confirmed the presence of specific types of child protection services, including: psychosocial support (6%); mine risk education (5%); and family tracing and reunification services (4%); while a significant proportion indicated that no specialized child protection services existed in their areas (81%).

MULTI-CLUSTER LOCATION ASSESSMENT FEBRUARY 2017

Vulnerability & Humanitarian Assistance Indices
Clusters were requested to select questions from the location assessment tools – IDP and returnee versions – that could serve as proxy indicators of vulnerability in relation to their sector. The data gathered in relation to each proxy indicator was scored on a scale of 0 to 1. On the basis of data gathered for each of the selected proxy indicators, a combined vul-nerability score was developed per governorate, which is calculated by adding individual scores of the thirteen different proxy indicators of vulnerability, namely: IDP to host community ratio; multiple displacement; number of non-Yemenis; elderly dependency ratio (elderly to adult); children dependency ratio (children to adult); sex ratio (female to male); girl en-rolment (ages 6 – 17); food consumption level; access to markets; access to water; access to sanitation; access to health; and shelter inadequacy. This method and selected proxy indicators were used for both the IDP and returnee data sets.
In addition, a combined humanitarian assistance score was developed per governorate, which is calculated by adding individual scores for two proxy indicators for humanitarian assistance, namely: degree assistance is not supporting priority needs; and degree assistance is not reaching the most vulnerable. Again, this method and selected proxy indicators were used for the both the IDP and returnee data sets related to humanitarian assistance.

TASK FORCE FOR POPULATION MOVEMENT
HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCEIn addition to gathering information on humanitarian response, the location assessment sought to gather data on perceptions among IDPs, returnees and host community members on the delivery of humanitarian, information needs related to humanitarian assistance, and accountability to affected populations.
By frequency of response, food assistance was reported in identified IDP / host locations as the most recent type of assistance provided; with shelter, and NFI or WASH assistance coming in at a distant second and third place, respectively. In terms of numbers, key informants indicated that a total of 219,190 IDP households and 502,4334 host community households received one of these assistance types recently, the majority of which can be assumed to be food assistance.
Alarmingly, within identified IDP locations, when asked whether humanitarian assistance was supporting the community in meeting priority needs, 56% of key informants indicated that it does so partially, and 42% reported that it does not. Also of note, on a scale of 0 to 5 where 0 is the lowest and 5 is the highest, the majority of key informants indicated that the IDP / host community did not have any - or had insufficient - information needed to access humanitarian assistance (73% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale). To compound matters, 70% of key informants indicated that the IDP / host community were not aware of how to provide feedback or a complaint to humanitarian agencies. Using the same scale of 0 to 5, the majority of key informants stated that the IDP / host community did not feel involved at all - or sufficiently involved - in the way humanitarian assistance is provided (69% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale).

In addition, on a scale of 0 to 5 where 0 signifies that those most in need/vulnerable never received assistance and 5 signifies that those most in need/vulnerable always received assistance, the majority of key informants stated that those most in need/vulnerable either never received assistance or they received insufficient assistance (72% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale). In fact, 73% of key informants in identified IDP locations confirmed that IDPs faced challenges in accessing assistance. Key informants indicated that the top three challenges IDPs faced with respect to accessing humanitarian assistance were: assistance is not provided regularly enough (32%); assistance is diverted (27%); and beneficiary selection was unfair (14%).

Turning to identified returnee locations, by frequency of response, food assistance was once again reported as the most recent type of assistance provided; with WASH, and Shelter or NFI assistance coming in at a distant second and third place, respectively. In terms of numbers, key informants indicated that a total of 83,205 returnee households and 139,276 non-displaced households received one of these assistance types recently, the majority of which can be assumed to be food assistance.
Within identified returnee locations, when asked whether humanitarian assistance was supporting the community in meeting priority needs, 54% of key informants indicated that it does so partially, and 44% reported that it does not. Notably, the majority of key informants indicated that the returnee / non-displaced community did not have any - or had insufficient - information
needed to access humanitarian assistance (76% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale). Furthermore, 78% of key informants indicated that the returnee / non-displaced community were not aware of how to provide feedback or make a complaint to humanitarian agencies. Moreover, the majority of key informants stated that the returnee / non-displaced community did not feel involved at all - or sufficiently involved - in the way humanitarian assistance is provided (75% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale).

In addition, in returnee locations the majority of key informants stated that those most in need/vulnerable either never received assistance or they received it insufficiently (68% of responses fell within the 0 to 2 scale). Indeed, 63% of key informants in identified returnee locations confirmed that returnees faced challenges in accessing assistance. Key informants indicated that the top three challenges returnees faced with respect to accessing humanitarian assistance were: assistance is not provided regularly enough (32%); assistance is diverted (26%); and too many people were in need of assistance and there was not enough assistance (18%).

While the data on perceptions of humanitarian assistance is certainly negative, it is important to consider the context in which humanitarian actors operate in Yemen, as well as the progress that has been made since the data for this multi-cluster location assessment was collected in August-September 2016. For instance, it should be noted that UNHCR through its implementing partner AMideast used to operate an IDP Call Centre in Yemen – called Tawasul (meaning dialogue in Arabic) – from December 2015 to April 2016. The Call Centre served as a common service for the entire humanitarian community, providing IDPs, returnees and host community members with information about humanitarian assistance. It also served as a feedback/complaint mechanism in relation to humanitarian assistance. However, the IDP Call Centre was suspended by the authorities in April 2016. Negotiations with the authorities to reactivate the Call Centre in 2017 are ongoing.
In the meantime, with the support of the Community Engagement Working Group (CE WG) – a technical working group of the Inter-Cluster Coordination Mechanism (ICCM) – an Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) Framework was adopted by the humanitarian community in Yemen in November 2016. The Framework aims to support clusters and organizations to operationalise accountability through community engagement activities, particularly information provision, participation and feedback components. The commitment to AAP was central to the development of the 2017 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan (YHRP) as all humanitarian actors who are coordinated under this plan committed to adopting the AAP Framework within their respective organizations. Clusters are operationalizing the AAP Framework, supporting their members to engage in coordinated participatory needs assessments, developing or strengthening feedback and complaint mechanisms, as well as providing relevant information to affected community members in accordance with their information needs.
However, lack of funds, coupled with continued conflict and access constraints imposed by parties to the conflict, have severely hampered the level of response. As of year end, the 2016 YHRP received only 60% funding against the $1.6 billion appeal. Moreover, aid diversion is a recognized problem faced by UN agencies and I/NGO partners, for which there are no easy solutions. More humanitarian organizations are engaging in direct and third party monitoring as a means to monitor and address these challenges. With respect to beneficiary selection, cluster-specific vulnerability criteria are in place, however, these have not been widely disseminated among affected populations and local authorities, nor have affected populations contributed to defining the criteria, which can lead to the perception of unfair beneficiary selection. On a positive note, as part of development of the HNO 2017, Clusters utilized the data from this multi-cluster location assessment to conduct district-level severity scoring, and this translated into geographic targeting of areas with the most acute needs in the YHRP 2017.

TFPM SERVICES AND CONTACTSThe TFPM’s multi-cluster location assessment aims to inform the humanitarian response in Yemen through the implementation of an in-depth and coordinated multi-sectoral location based assessment. The assessment has allowed access to a greater breadth and depth of information that was used to inform needs and gap analysis, humanitarian response planning and targeted interventions in Yemen. In addition to the analysis, charts, graphs and tables included in this report, the full dataset is being released with this report on the www.humanitarianresponse.info website. This includes pivot tables for IDP, host returnee and non-displaced populations, which allows for the manipulation of the fields included in the dataset to generate specific data. The TFPM is willing and able to generate data based on specific requests.The contacts within IOM and UNHCR as per their respective areas of operation are as follows:
